La trama celeste
by Adolfo Bioy CasaresEn este libro de relatos esrito en 1948, Bioy Casares crea con inagotable fantasía cuentos de apariencia y realidad, de mundos paralelos y juegos espaciotemporales, consiguiendo una de las obras más trascendentes en la literatura argentina. Entre la apertura y el cierre tan simétricos de «Memoria de Paulina» y «El perjurio de la nieve», dos extraordinarios cuentos que, con aires de policial fantástico, exponen a su manera un triángulo amoroso, es como si hubiera algo aún más próximo y accesible en los relatos que conforman La trama celeste: tal vez la recurrencia de la primera persona, las múltiples resonancias en muchos de estos personajes del acto de escribir o la naturalidad con la que el fantástico cierra de un portazo aquello que falsea en el orden de lo real. Jardines con trasfondo, inescrutables giros del destino, mundos paralelos que convergen en algún punto y tranqueras que detienen el tiempo se dan cita en esta serie de relatos tan notables como sutiles que ofrecen, acaso, las puertas de acceso ideales a una de las obras más trascendentes de la literatura argentina.

A shooting at his son's high school left the astronaut feeling he was safer in space than his son felt in the classroom. This revelation became all the more significant when at week's end Paul found himself inexplicably on the Moon and greeted by an alien seeking his support in bringing an end to violence on Earth. Paul Connors never imagined he would one day be spokesperson for humankind's first encounter with aliens. But he was also a responsible citizen of Earth, and fear over the aliens' intentions was fueling a worldwide crisis for which Paul felt responsible. But what to do? Could the alien plan really get humankind past its dependency on violence to solve its problems, or would it only serve to make matters worse? Most importantly, was world peace even a remote possibility? “It's so hard to help your child make sense of senselessness when you can't even do it for yourself.”

Transcendence
by Charles SheffieldThe Zardalu were the greatest menace ever known to the worlds of the spiral arm, enslaving entire races and exterminating others, guided by an unswerving belief in their own supremacy. Then their slaves rose up against them, and for eleven thousand years the Zardalu had been extinct and the spiral arm had known a kind of peace.But now the Zardalu are back . . .The search for the Builders, the legendary alien race whose unfathomable constructs continued to perplex scholars and explorers alike, had led Builder expert Darya Lang, adventurer Hans Rebka, and treasure hunters Louis Nenda and Atvar H'sial to an unknown Builder artifact far outside the spiral arm. There they found the Zardalu - just a few who had been trapped in stasis all those millennia, held there for purposes known only to the Builders. And in the struggle that ensued the Zardalu had been set loose, transported by Builder technology to to galactic parts unknown - free to ravage any world and any race within their grasp. The only chance to eliminate the Zardalu threat was to find them and wipe them out before they had time to breed back up to strength and once again threaten civilized beings everywhere. The problem was that no one believed the story. Only Darya Land and her companions had actually seen the aliens - and no evidence existed to support their claims. And so the course seemed clear: get a ship themselves and search out the Zardalu. But the way would not be easy. Even once they managed to locate the Zardalu, they still had the Builders to deal with. For the closer they got to their quarry, the more clear it became that the Zardalu and their world were closely entwined with the fate - and the plans - of the Builders themselves.
